The 580 is 1.5GB and they trade blows together with the 580 coming out on top by perhaps 15% though at £150 for 580 Vs £120 for 6950 (unlocked to 6970) is the extra £30 worth it? seems negligible to me, especially when money is very tight

Might be able to snag a GTX 480 for about £110 which is much better than the 6950 and only 10% slower than the 580 but for £40 cheaper it seems like a no brainer, it's a Gigabyte Windforce 3x card as well so better than reference

Played it for about 2 weeks then got bored of it :/ seems very grindy and faceroll after a while. Best part was when i got Enhanced Bane, irritated so many people in my house with a little volume. Then i gave up!

I just sold that piece of crap, ha.

I do the first play through on my own and now i'm level 49 and kinda want to finish it with some co-oping so that i get some decent drops etc.

Is anyone still mining for bitcoins? I am going to have a go with my 7950 and want some advice on joining a pool

pointless. trust me. you need to be running about 12 gpus+. It will cost you a few thousand in setup, and a few thousand a year in electricity. You will make maybe a little bit of bitcoin money on top of that provided you get money for your coins.
I know a bitcoin farmer, he has about 20 systems running trifire, and only makes about £2k a year for 24/7 mining every year.
God knows what his setup costs was.

He's probably mining on his own and not in a pool, joining a pool provides small regular payouts

anyone got a 5870,6950,6970 or similar sitting around, would be interested in a single (or a pair if needed/price is good) my 9600GSO isn't cutting it right now
Even if you know where to get one cheap would be nice too!

was gonna look into litecoin mining let me know how it goes for you NdMk2o1o
